1. Properly wash your face. No, just using a makeup wipe will not do. We’re talking about a face wash and water. AND, using a toner is really important to really get all that excess dirt, dead skin, makeup, oils, and gunk out of your pores. Use a silicone scrubby 2-3 times a week to really get in there, too. 2. Stay hydrated! Water, water, and more water. You should be drinking approximately a gallon of water a day for ALL the benefits of hydration. So...
American’s (and almost everyone around the globe) already know that the Fourth of July is the day to celebrate our independence from the British monarchy. Although Congress signed and agreed upon this just two days prior, it was officially announced on July 4, 1776. From that day forward, the 13 original colonies were no longer under the rule of Great Britain, and its people were now able to live as free, united, independent states. However, in Hawai’i, this day of independence is 3-fold. Here’s why July 4th may be...
Hawai'i is, yet again, named by Gallup as the top location for well-being.And it's no surprise! When we hear someone mention Hawai’i, most of us are mentally engulfed with tropical imagery, lazy pool days, abundant flora and fauna, wind in our hair, beautiful beaches, and crystal-clear waters. The incredible scenery, the ever-present tradition and culture, the vibrant sunrises and sunsets, and awaiting adventures: what could be more perfect? If this doesn’t define ‘paradise’ – then I clearly do not know what does. But there is even more to this tropical...
For most of us around the globe, June 11th is just another typical Tuesday. But to Hawaiian’s, this day is a state holiday - a joyous day full of festivals, culture, traditions, and honoring Kamehameha the Great (aka Kamehameha the First, Kamehameha I, and King Kamehameha). Celebrations for Honor Throughout the day, patrons participate in several activities throughout the Islands of Hawai’i, oftentimes with multiple chances to catch a ho’olaul eʻa. A Hoʻolauleʻa is a Hawaiian celebration or festival, which may consist of authentic hula dancing and music, foods, vendors...
World Turtle Day is to bring recognition to the American Tortoise Rescue organization. People can donate money towards this nonprofit company to help the many turtles who need our help. You can also volunteer for other organizations that promote turtle conservation and protection. World Turtle Day started in 1990, so the extinction of these beautiful sea creatures could be brought to light.
Almost 70% of the turtles that are alive today are on the endangered species list, including seven species of sea turtles(whichinclude the Hawksbill,
Let’s face it: starting, and actually sticking to, a skincare routine is pretty hard. Personally, I’ve spent thousands of dollars on skincare products over the years and, while I may have had the very best of intentions, I always found some excuse to skip even the basic step of washing my makeup off. But come on! “I’m probably going to be too loud and wake up the family," or, um… you know, “all that water is going to just run down my arms and make a huge puddle all over...

As you just previously read in our Skincare Smart Start blog, there is a major disconnect between what we believe to be natural or organic vs what is actually good for your skin (or, even worse, what is true vs what the marketing companies want us to think). Now that we've established what to look for, let's focus on how to get that youthful, glowing, radiant skin we're all after. Luckily, a natural skincare regimen does not have to be complicated. Here are the basics: Step One: Cleanse and Exfoliate ...
